Notice the pilot's eyes... He's not fixated on any one instrument, and he NEVER, not once, looks outside until he reasonably expects to see the runway. That "pea soup" is incredibly disorienting. Good example of low vis flying.

What an amazing instructor Brandon is. Right in the feels. Good job Josh, incredible work.

Tell your instructor to say "reduce power" instead of "pull power" sounds incredibly similar to "FULL power".. Could get you and him in a bad situation at some point!!

You did not hear the approach controller properly. She also asked if you meant approach or runway lights and you replied runway. She said the runway lights would be at full intensity due to the PCL failure. She next asked if you wanted anything else but you missed it.

As an IFR student, that was perfect view point, great to see you stay calm/focus, and you can tell your instructor was supportive awhile with good communication. Cheers

I feel the controller never confirmed ALS would be on. She actually asked whether you were referring to the ALS or Runway lights and then proceeded to declare that all the RUNWAY lights would be on. Perhaps she should have specifically mentioned that ALS was out though. Nice video. Congrats on nailing the approach.

@@ProfessionalPilot Look at 2:30. The controller asks if he is asking about the APP lights or the RWY lights as she says all RWY lights will be on high. He answers thank you. The pilot caused the confusion, not the controller.

I only have one note. The controller said 3000' until established, not 3000' until GARYS. Those are two very different things. Maybe the approach has changed, but the current plate has GS intercept at 2700'. Using that plate, you can descend from 3000 to 2700 as soon as you have course guidance on the LOC.

Great job teaching, letting the student fly the entire approach. Tap the rudder for the minor heading correction and use the trim more - trim for the 500 fpm and see if you can fly the whole approach with little to no control inputs. The closer you get to that, the easier even approaches to mins will be.

I was on the edge of my seat watching, when you were in the clouds with no visual reference.. Great Cool Calm & Collected flying ..

Great job! You and your instructor did a fantastic job. In that situation your instructor did exactly as he should, he was instructing, and making sure you were both safe.

Phenomenal Josh! Loved this video. Glad to watch you grow as a pilot and gain such unique experiences!

You are a great pilot and you will only get better as the hours add up. Very nice job for a student pilot. My first IFR approach was an ILS into BWI (Baltimore) right down to the minimums. I will never forget that feeling. Great job and safe and long flying career!

Josh, for me, being a simple PPL I never ever seen a young guy performing a so proffessional job as you did. Congtrats!

Great video, you have a hell of an instructor. You have a great attitude about flying and learning more about how to continuously improve.

Outstanding video and even better Instrument approach Josh... I'm extremely impressed! Way to Go..!

Great video, great flight, and excellent use of CRM! I really like the fact that you learn a lesson with each flight. The best pilot is the one that is always willing to learn something new and take constructive critiquing. Blue skies brotha!

Good video! I still remember the first approach I flew down to minimums, it's amazing how close you are to the runway when you pop out at 200'. One small concern I have is that I didn't see either you or the instructor paying much attention to the actual decision height; my instructor always had me call out key altitudes, state aloud the actual altitude that we would go missed at as we started down the ILS glideslope, and count down at 100' intervals for the last few hundred feet. I realize that some of that may have been edited out of the video, but it's still a good thing to think about.

Josh...this was one of the most intense, suspenseful videos of yours that I've seen...great job. I do enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing.

You are really lucky to have an instructor as good as Brandon - he is "da man!" I once had a "furloughed Pam Am Pilot" as my Instrument Instructor. He yelled and screamed at me, until I made a "one eighty" and went back to the field to NEVER fly with him again. And I did not! Josh, you are an excellent "manipulator of the controls," and have a great aviation career ahead of you. I'm jealous as hell :) Nice video, thanks, N-6395T p.s. the movement of the carb heat knob was really telling and important.

`Even though I have my instrument rating now I never got to do an actual approach in actual conditions, let alone to minimums (the bad part of taking IFR lessons in the winter in NY), so this was cool to watch! Good job

I really like this video, I'm finishing my IFR course and you seem so confident to be starting your lessons! I have seen a lot of your videos, and the best thing is that they always leave something to learn for all of us! Great Job! Keep going with this, we all appreciate what you do.

Nice video! A bit too much of pressure and talking of the instructor in my opinion. Instrument flying is very very easy once you do it regularly and very very difficult at the beginning. Good briefing before the flight, the awareness of the common errors (a good portion of them are caused by the mere fact that a student pilot in IMC is nervous) helps. Do it in a simulator a couple of times to train your brain for the correct scanning technique. There is no rocket science behind an ILS, just a sequence of quite a lot of small steps and actions. I do not fly C172's a lot, I would suggest to fly these approaches with 10 deg flaps only, leave the flaps there until touchdown, any flap changes during the apporach produce a lot of pitch changes - very distracting. An ILS runway is plenty long enough for a C172 on a partial flap landing. Nice video - keep up the good work! Happy landings Guido

@GuidoWarnecke

9 жыл бұрын

Angelita: it is important not to "chase" a pitch on the glide slope. Start with a know power setting and then do only minor adjustments with power and pitch. If you have a strong headwind you may need to add some power, above the "normal" power setting in the approach. The key here is "small" adjustments. Another way to train this on any flight: Set up the aircraft on a descent and watch you ground speed on the GPS. On a 3 deg glide path you would need 600 feet per minute descent rate to maintain on the glide path. The formula: ground speed multiplied by 5. Example: 100 kts ground speed, multiplied by 5 is 5000 feet per minute rate of descent. You hold the rate of descent for that ground speed and you aircraft will stay solid on the glide path, no chasing... Happy landings, Guido

whoa!!! thats was a nice ILS approach. Team work will done. AWESOME!!!

Lovely video. I remember with great fondness the feeling that I got whenever I carried out an ILS approach; especially when one is faced with minimums or a very low ceiling: Popping out of the soup to see the numbers right there in front of you is a great feeling. When I used to fly (not for many a year now), I had a very stressful job, and could hardly take my mind off of work. Flying, especially under IFR, and although stressful and tense in itself, gave me great relief from the everyday 'killing you early type' of stress and tension in my working life; learning to become equanimous under approach-stress was, I found, and bizarrely perhaps, quite relaxing ... forgetting the day job and just getting it right in the aircraft was so very good for me.

awesome video, awesome approach, and awesome instructor!

Great video! I have the deepest respect for this performance and for you both, Congrats! I like the "Wow" and the slap on the back at 16:55, great human and noble reaction and character!

I'm going to watch it again. I am fascinated by IFR flying!! Wow, good job guys!

Great video. One suggestion I would have is to get in the habit of calling out your altitude and the minimum altitude ie. 500 for 300 . This helps to know when you have to go missed and don't find yourself below minimums on the approach

I agree. I am not so convinced as some are, about the appropriateness of the instructor's constant advice during the descent. In my experience, the pilot is usually already taking the correct action to regain the glideslope. It is too easy for the pilot monitoring to pick up a deviation, which is probably already being addressed.

I see that you're on NAV page 2 on the 430. NAV page 1 is better for flying the approach in my opinion. Trying to fly the magenta line with precision is a fool's game. On NAV page 1 you have the indicator. If you set up the 430 to show DTK and TRK as long as you keep those the same, you'll stay right on the localizer. Nice job though.

Well done. Great instructor. You were both pretty calm.

IFR cockpit management is like a chess match. You always have to be thinking five moves ahead.

Great video! A little comment: The controller cleared you to the approach and limited you to 3,000' until established (NOT to GARYS). Once you're established, you are automatically cleared to descend to 2,700' (per the approach plate). Additionally, GARYS is the FAF only for the localizer approach. For ILS approaches, the FAF occurs once you intercept the GS at 2,700' (which is marked by the lightning bolt symbol on the profile view of the plate - that's what the FAA calls PFAF, or precision final approach fix).

+talreichert MrAviation101, thank you VERY much for videoing, editing, and sharing such an awesome video. As a soon-to-be instrument student pilot, this was great to watch. Great landing too! Is talreichert’s comment correct? It seems so to me, but I’m just learning. At about 8:30, ATC said “Maintain 3000 until established on the final approach course” and, given the reference to “course,” I’m guessing that just means stay above 3,000 until you know that you’re established on the 126 course because you’ve got the localizer needle centered After you’re established so that ATC’s 3000 limitation is removed, I guess you could just stay at 3000 until you intercept the GS, but I think that you could have descended 2700, the minimum GS intercept altitude show on the chart. At 14:36, after you were beyond GARYS, you show the instruments with you above the glideslope. And then, at about 14:50, your instructor said “that glide slop is getting way beneath you.” I’ve noticed that sometimes the ILS lightning bolt and the LOC cross are co-located points in space. In this case, however, the plate shows the glide slope intercept and FAF for an ILS precision approach (the lightning bolt) at some distance in advance of the FAF for a non-precision approach (the maltese cross) at GARYS (RU LOM), so I’m guessing that interpreting ATC’s instructions as meaning you should maintain 3000 all the way until you reached GARYS is probably why you were initially above the GS and had to aggressively descend to acquire it. I’m thinking that intercepting the glide slope prior to GARYS would have been a bit more comfortable. Thoughts?

+Joe Andras I haven't received anything on my comment either, I believe what you wrote is correct too. One thing as to what "established" means - if I recall my instrument training right, it does not require that the needle is in the center, but that it's in less-than-full swing (i.e. not in a condition that would require go-around) and moving toward the center. It is not required for it to be in the dead-center before you can call yourself "aligned" and proceed with the approach. It basically requires that you receive and identify the radio aid in question (where and as applicable), that the indicator is not flagged or pegged to either side (i.e. less than full swing). I hope that's helpful.

All of those devices are magnetically shielded. They are meant to sit on the glareshield next to the compass.

+Adam Rice yeah! No problem. It's a common misconception, most of those aviation devices like we have are designed to not affect the compass.

Good thing when you guys can communicate this well.

Way to go on catching that glidescope again! That was awesome to watch.

That was fun! I was feeling nerves sitting in my chair watching you guys. Brandon was very positive during the flight, you guys did great!
